In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
Privately rented commercial property in Wales generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
Wrexham FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Wrexham?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, the Welsh Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Can you work out of hours in Wrexham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Wrexham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you cover all of Wrexham?
Yes. We work across Wrexham and the LL13, LL11 and LL12 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Gresford, Brymbo and Rhosllannerchrugog.
Do you just change the tubes?
We recommend replacing the whole luminaire. Retrofit LED tubes leave old ballasts and holders in place, which can fail and complicate future maintenance. A complete fitting is cleaner, more efficient and simpler to certify.
